AI-enabled technologies could help museums survive the digital age

By definition, museums store and display objects of historical, scientific, artistic, or cultural significance. Want to see dinosaur skeletons, medical oddities, Civil War weapons, or Renoir masterpieces? But without relatability and modern storytelling, even the most captivating exhibits can be, well, a bit stuffy and boring. Especially for young people who are used to rich, complex multimedia experiences. If museums want to remain engaging and relevant in changing times, it makes sense that they would adopt new technology trends to elevate their purpose. According to the American Alliance of Museums (AAM), artificial intelligence is one of the biggest trends in the field to watch.
